HVUT and 2290 forms due tonight

A
reminder that today, Aug. 31, is the deadline for truck owners to pay their
federal heavy vehicle use tax.

The
burn is $550 for trucks weighing more than 75,000 pounds – and the tax payment
is all due at once, along with your 2290 IRS form. Quarterly payments are no
longer allowed.

If you miss the deadline, fines and penalties will be added to your tax
bill. And, truck owners must pay the tax and get a stamped copy of their
Schedule 1 form as proof of payment before they can renew their license plates.
